One of the most critical points in the ransomware ‘Kill Chain’ is privilege escalation and lateral movement, where attackers attempt to locate your domain controllers and escalate their security privilege to exfiltrate data, encrypt it, and demand ransom.    Certes’ DPRM (Data Protection and Risk Mitigation) disrupts this process by breaking the Kill Chain, taking a data-security position rather than network security, including: - Separating data access from network access - Protecting individual data flows with quantum keys - Preventing lateral movement - Making sensitive and valuable data unidentifiable    Download our factsheet to learn more about how Certes protects against ransomware by breaking the Kill Chain: https://lnkd.in/ess2XE8t    #DPRM #Ransomware #KillChain 

Recent cyberattacks on critical infrastructure, like the Halliburton incident, highlight the urgent need to rethink how we protect essential systems. Traditional perimeter security is no longer enough to defend against sophisticated threats as criminals exploit vulnerabilities in systems like Active Directory (AD) to cause potentially devastating consequences for businesses and industries. What's the solution?  Proactive, multi-layered defence strategies like Certes DPRM, which secure and segment Active Directory (AD), can prevent the devastating exploitation of vulnerabilities like ZeroLogon by limiting attacker’s ability to compromise key systems. In our latest whitepaper, we explore how Data Protection and Risk Mitigation (DPRM) can ensure the integrity and security of your organisation's most critical assets.

The Dutch DPA has imposed a staggering €290 million fine on Uber for transferring drivers' data to the US in an unprotected format - resulting in a significant GDPR violation. What's crucial here is that no data breach occurred - instead, data sovereignty was compromised as data moved between geo-locations without the necessary protections.   This incident exposes a critical gap in traditional network security - it simply can't address this kind of GDPR failure.   With Data Protection and Risk Mitigation (DPRM), this data transfer could have been secured, and the violation prevented by ensuring your data remains under your control throughout its journey, regardless of location. It's time to rethink data security beyond just breaches and start focusing on comprehensive data protection.

Michigan-based McLaren Health Care is facing its second cyberattack in less than a year, disrupting IT systems and patient services across 13 hospitals. The INC Ransom group has claimed responsibility, with a ransom note surfacing online. Just last year, the BlackCat/Alphv gang allegedly stole 6TB of sensitive patient data from McLaren. Over 80% of organisations that have been breached are likely to be targeted again, proving traditional security methods are falling short. At Certes, we take a different approach. We assume breaches will happen and focus on protecting the most critical asset - your data. With Certes’ DPRM, even if your infrastructure is compromised, your data remains secure.
